This is what car services were invented for. Neither of us expect rides to/from the airport from each other. We both recognize that it’s a horrible waste of each other’s time.

Picking her up was something she wanted and makes her feel loved and appreciated. Assuming work call could not be moved then explain and okay, but she will still feel less important to you than taking your work call. Once your schedule changed you could have prioritized her and in her mind make her feel like you want to care and support her by letting her know there was a change and you will pick her up. Instead you took actions that made her think you don't prioritize or think about her. She wants to believe you are her man and that you will protect and support her, and here you failed. Thanks Dr. Phil. But you're not wrong.

May 1, 2025May 1 I never really understood the silent treatment. It's like, hey I'm not going to nag you, or spend hours telling you about meaningless shit that you don't care about, or interrupt you while you are watching tv to ask stupid questions, and, I'm going to keep not doing it until you apologize for the thing that you don't have any idea you did that I perceived as some kind of slight.

A man is sitting at a bar looking sad and depressed as he slowly drinks his beer. The bartender comes up and asks the man what is wrong. "Well, my wife is angry at me for something I don't even understand, and she said she was so angry that she was not going to speak with me for 30 days." The bartender tells the guy not to be upset and that things will get better. The man says, "Not really, today is day 30."

May 12, 2025May 12 I sweeped and then vacuumed the fur, I’m not a madman. Wife noticed after daughter did. It didn’t turn out bad. Tired of paying for grooming for an incontinent dog that cannot produce tears and needs to be shaved down every time anyways. 22 hours ago, ABSR said: If this was about your wife’s kitty I would be more interested.

May 29, 2025May 29 Other day my wife was taking the girl to girl scouts at an outdoor picnic/playground. Drinks were her responsibility. Stopped at Target and got some Capri suns and bottled water and a small bag of Ice. stopped at home. I grabbed the cooler out of the garage and dumped what ice we had in the freezer in to the cooler while she was opening the boxes of drinks. Put it on the tailgate, when she opens it to drop the drinks inside Her "oh wow, there's ice in it already!"
May 30, 2025May 30 I always keep a bag of ice in the deep freezer for situations where we need a bag of ice but either don't have time to hit the gas station or I'm just too lazy to do it. Last time I got the "but that ice is old" comment.

May 30, 2025May 30 Unless you're using it in drinks, then yes don't use old ice. It absorbs odors from the freezer and picks up odd tastes.

Last time I got the "but that ice is old" comment. I actually do something similar. I'll buy like a case of cheap water bottles, drink about half of each bottle and put them in the freezer. Then when we go to the pool or park or something. I fill up 3-4 bottles and throw them in my little travel cooler . I was also told that you should keep your freezer as full as possible to make it run less. Edited May 30, 2025May 30 by Jameslaw121

You'd think that, but 4 months from now, something else will set her off and you'll be getting interrogated about those 20 minutes like your marriage depends on it. At that point, you won't even remember why the hell you did it, but your life and bank account will depend on it.

June 13, 2025Jun 13 Here is an example of how this tread works.Wife decides this past weekend to back out of the garage side saddle. In other words, driver door open, looking out the open door to back out. Why? Anyhow, she managed to catch her door on my passenger side rear tire and quarter panel, fucking up both the door on her GX460, and my Blackwing!I still can’t guess as to what she was thinking. She has tried several times to try to explain it to me. In the 20 plus years living here, now this was a good idea? WTF?
